Spearka

nope, not even in there

hmm, what if someone modded a thruster like a beam weapon with these mechanics. 0 thrust, long-ass exhaust and ALL the heat

For a carrier it doesn't appear to cover the fighters well; a single shot could easily destroy the fighters it carries

Emu, I know it's late but I did sort-of accept your challenge in the end. Due to hardware limitations I was only able to pit the Avacyn vs the light cruiser alone without escort Releasing one Isochron missile off the housing the low framerate made this is b1tch to aim SMASH! the missile impacted at 300m/s-ish; it decapitated the cruiser and while technically controllable it was only because of the probecores in the missiles. seriously Emu, you need a better way of controlling your craft; at least put a probecore in the centre

Hey HatBat, can you provide a progress update for the next episode please? Last we heard was that after VesselMover progress has been sped up greatly but I'd just like to know how much?

sir... my fighter would like a word with your fighter in its native tongue of BBZZZZZZZTTT https://www.dropbox.com/s/tuy0rwmvsxlx6vd/Thassa-class%20Heavy%20Fighter.craft?dl=0

as much as I'd like to accept my computer doesn't even like two modest-sized ships in the same place :C

the poster says 2017 yet the text says 2016

you don't need to scrawl SAP-C on your overwise nice flag

just a little proof of concept that the Avacyn CARRIER can actually CARRY things EDIT: I've PMed you again Hatbat since I have made significant changes to two of my ships

note to self: I-beam missiles generate gigantic recoil

nah, I still have my own arnaments that are quite powerful (see Bol-class missile and the newly named Isochron missiles). I'm also too busy emptying Kraken arnaments on Emu ships aagh! gigantic recoil! ummm, Emu?

mainly a half-truth. I had to go out of my way to try and make the ship functional (at minimum it shouldn't be one-shotted) also I'm sort-of going to be repurposing the BASIL's missiles for the Thalia as you suggested, will that be OK?

it took me too long but I finally managed to fix the Avacyn Carrier! admittedly I used a layout like that of the Kenji with a few tweaks of my own since the design is odd To try and test it I used a head-on shot like panzer did only this time I used a giant Bol-class missile, this was the result. yes, yes I know it's still not perfect but I am still okay with this! oh right, download

That's just another Trafalgar Co. Victory I ain't scared

hey panzer, or zekes or whoever... could you please do a restest of a new Avacyn hull please? I haven't added weapons yet as I do not know if it is still tough enough https://www.dropbox.com/s/2qravcvserjqo81/Avacyn-class%20Assault%20Carrier%20hull.craft?dl=0

so grey, what about that dreadnought you were oh-so-teasing us about?

*phew I've finally finished rebuilding the Avacyn from the ground up using a structure similar to that zekes uses. But its unique shape means I have had to make tweaks of my own. It's unarmed for the moment but if it can survive a few missiles you guys throw at it, I'll keep, arm and reinstate it you guessed it

blame zekes

Thanks for the suggestion but I must decline as it would probably give my computer a metaphorical hemorrhage. Also other than that there (might) also be the Vraska but otherwise I haven't the time to make too many orbital ships before you ask Vraska is a gorgon

I name all my vehicles after Magic: The Gathering characters (because why not?) the latter is a badass angel and the other one is a badass guardian of a demonic vault. As for the ships. The carrier is actually very weak in structure (not a new issue) and I'm trying to rebuild it from the ground up. As for the monoprop missiles; I tested one on a Kenji Drekevak and tore the front off so that should give you a good idea of its power I don't have a subassembly for the missiles but I do have download links for both ships Avacyn Thalia

Most recent ship Most recent functional ship

well lucky for you I have also made a dogfighting craft you can also use https://www.dropbox.com/s/tuy0rwmvsxlx6vd/Thassa-class%20Heavy%20Fighter.craft?dl=0

if your ships are like my ships they still die in one shot

Just curious but did the AI ever attempt to use the laser to destroy incoming missiles or is it beyond comprehension for that? I didn't expect a victory either way, the Zarek is actually made for hit-and-run attacks at hypersonic speed and doesn't have advantage at low speed Yes, but the difference here is that for once I want a a capital ship that does NOT go in the pile and looks awesomely unique
